Community Service Award – Organization: John T. Lyle Center for Regenerative Studies

The John T. Lyle Center for Regenerative Studies will receive the Community Service Award for providing sustained, pro bono service demonstrating the sound principles or values of landscape architecture. The Lyle Center has been a force in facilitating community change, community education and community action since its construction on the California State Polytechnic University, Pomona campus in 1994. It was the life’s work of Cal Poly Pomona emeritus professor of landscape architecture, John T. Lyle, FASLA (1934-1998). Thousands of visitors tour the facility each year, learning about sustainable principles, and the center places students into communities to help organize and empower social and landscape change.
